An extraordinary woman. She painted her life in extraordinary colors exemplifying her pain and suffering. At age 18 Frida was in a bus accident and was bed ridden for over a year. with fractures in her spine, collarbone, ribs, and shattering her pelvis. Through this pain and suffering she became passionate about art. The fact that she can fight through this pain and let it become a beautiful thing is an inspiration for all humans and artists alike.
